so cleanly defined."

A Memorable Sports Moment

In 1986, I was at a great ballplayers of the Bay Area event, featuring among others Lefty Gomez and Joe DiMaggio. I got into an interesting discussion with Lefty about Ty Cobb, and how Lefty would have pitched to Cobb, once the most hated man in baseball. (Gomez said he'd start Cobb off by "sticking one in his ear.")

Joe was listening and even contributing to the discussion. When it was over, I thanked them both for their time. The famously reserved and aloof DiMaggio said to me: "I enjoyed it. Do you want me to sign something?"

I thanked him but said no.

I thought he'd appreciate that.
